LTC2634CUD-HZ12#PBF

Digital To Analog Converters Overview

The LTC2634CUD-HZ12#PBF is a quad 12-bit voltage output digital-to-analog converter (DAC) from Analog Devices. It features an integrated precision reference providing a 4.096V full-scale output and operates within a 4.5V to 5.5V supply range. The device utilizes a 3-wire SPI/MICROWIRE compatible interface with clock rates up to 50MHz. Key electrical specifications include a maximum integral nonlinearity error of ±2.5 LSB, a settling time of 4.8µs, and rail-to-rail output buffers. The unit is housed in a 16-lead 3mm × 3mm QFN package and includes power-on reset functionality that clears outputs to zero-scale upon initialization.

Digital To Analog Converters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's documentation to confirm package type, temperature grade, and reset behavior. Ensure the design supports the required 4.5V to 5.5V supply voltage for the H-grade variant. Confirm compliance with RoHS standards and automotive qualification requirements if applicable to the target application environment.

Digital To Analog Converters Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad-channel DAC with high accuracy and low drift is required. The H-suffix indicates a 4.096V full-scale output necessitating a minimum 4.5V supply. The Z-suffix ensures outputs initialize to zero-scale, which is critical for safety in applications where downstream circuits are active during power-up. Verify that the 16-lead QFN package fits the available PCB footprint.

Digital To Analog Converters Part Context

This part belongs to the LTC2634 family, which offers various combinations of resolution (8, 10, or 12 bits), full-scale voltages (2.5V or 4.096V), and power-on reset behaviors. The CUD designation specifies the commercial temperature grade (0°C to 70°C) and the 16-lead QFN package format. Other variants in the series include MSOP packages and industrial/automotive temperature grades.

Digital To Analog Converters Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include LTC2634CUD-LZ12#PBF for a 2.5V full-scale output or LTC2634IUD-HZ12#PBF for an extended industrial temperature range. Ensure any substitute maintains the 4.5V minimum supply requirement and zero-scale power-on reset characteristic.
